[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a breast massager exercise model used for maintaining and improving the function of a female breast, and more particularly to a breast massager exercise model capable of performing shiatsu practice by self-management.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Breast massaging is effective for maintaining and improving the function of the female breast after delivery (eg, lactation), and several models for practice have been proposed in order to learn the technique of massaging. Has been done. However, in the conventional model, due to the internal structure and material of the breast, it is significantly harder than the living body, the movement of the base of the breast as a result of practicing massage is poor, and the tactile sensation during practice of the massage is that of a living body. Are quite separated. In order to improve this point, the contents that imitate the dairy tissue that has the triple structure of the upper part and the lower part and the intermediate part that is wrapped between these upper and lower parts are housed in the covering that imitates the soft ridge on the breast skin. What has been done is proposed (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1-28537). In this case, even if the model contents have some elasticity than the conventional one, it is difficult to practice massaging deep into the breast because the solid structure makes it difficult for the fingers to enter the base of the breast. However, there was a problem that the part of the living body could not be practiced because the nipple areola of the model was hard.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present inventor completed the present invention as a result of various studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the purpose of the present invention is to sufficiently practice massaging in the deep breast region and to further improve the operation of the nipple and areola. This is to provide a model for practicing breast massage that allows practice of massage.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The gist of the present invention is to have an elastic skin member having a shape imitating the outer contour of the female breast, a first elastic member having a shape imitating the fat layer in the female breast, and a shape imitating the mammary gland of the female breast. In a breast massage practice model imitating a female breast including a second elastic member, a spring member and a base member, the skin member and the base member are hermetically joined to each other at their peripheral portions. The elastic member, the second elastic member, and the spring member are housed, and the first elastic member and the second elastic member have respective positional relationships corresponding to the fat layer and the mammary gland in the female breast. The rear central portion of the first elastic member is arranged so as to be joined to the second elastic member central portion, and the spring member is located inside the second elastic member from the rear central portion of the second elastic member toward the front. With the insertion The end portion is in engagement with the second elastic member, and the rear end portion is airtightly joined to the central portion of the base member, and the skin member is kept in a tight state by the air pressure injected inside. In addition, the space between the skin member and the first elastic member, the outer space of the joint between the first elastic member and the second elastic member, and the base member and the second elastic member are It is a model for practicing breast massage, which is characterized by the presence of an air layer. Further, according to the present invention, by filling the inside of the papilla of the epidermis member having the outer contour of the female breast with a gel-like material, the feel of the papilla can be approximated to the living body.

That is, in the present invention, the model for practicing breast massage is a breast model that imitates the tense state of a female breast, and the adhesion area of the breast epidermis is made as small as possible to simulate the epidermis member and the fat layer. The quadruple structure of the first elastic member, the second elastic member simulating the mammary gland, and the base member having a skeleton has a quadruple structure, and an air layer is interposed between the elastic member and the breast model, so that the breast massager can be used in comparison with a conventional model for practicing breast massage. The above-mentioned problems can be solved by increasing the movability and by filling the inside of the nipple with a gel-like material.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described with reference to FIG. The epidermis member 1 imitates the epidermis of a female breast. Therefore, the material should be one that has an appropriate elasticity that gives a feel similar to the epidermis of a female breast, such as olefin rubber such as ethylene / propylene copolymer, diene rubber such as polybutadiene, styrene / butadiene copolymer, etc. A rubber, a natural rubber, an acrylic rubber such as a copolymer of acrylic acid ester, a polyester elastomer, a polyurethane, or a silicone rubber is used.

The skin member 1 is airtightly joined to the base member 7 to accommodate the first elastic member 2, the second elastic member 3 and the spring member 6 together with the base member, and is injected into the inside. The air pressure generated keeps the female breast filled with breast milk, that is, in a tight state.

The first elastic member 2 imitates a fat layer of a female breast, and therefore, the material thereof has an appropriate elasticity, for example, a flexible material such as polyurethane foam or foam rubber. The form is used.

The first elastic member 2 has a shape simulating the fat layer of a female breast, but its thickness does not necessarily have to be uniform. For example, as shown in FIGS. Therefore, the shape may be slightly increased toward the end.

The first elastic member 2 is arranged in a positional relationship corresponding to the fat layer in the female breast so as to be joined to the central portion of the second elastic member at the central portion of the back surface thereof. Further, since an air layer is interposed between the first elastic member 2 1 and the skin member 1 and in the joint outer space 10 with the second elastic member, its deformation and displacement are easy. It can behave like a fat layer in a female breast.

The second elastic member 3 imitates the mammary gland of a female breast, and therefore, a material having an appropriate elasticity, for example, a flexible foam such as polyurethane foam is used as the material thereof. It

The first elastic member 2 and the first elastic member 3 are joined to each other only at their central portions by bonding, welding, etc., and the joining portion between the first elastic member 2 and the second elastic member 3 is joined. An air layer is interposed in the outer space 10 and a space 11 is also interposed between the second elastic member 3 and the base member 7. Therefore, the first elastic member 2 and the second elastic member 3 are excellent in flexibility and movability as a whole in combination with their appropriate elasticity, so that they can move in a manner similar to that of the biological tissue composed of the fat layer and the mammary gland of the female breast. can do.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the back surface of the second elastic member 3 can be covered with a soft film 4, whereby the space between the second elastic member 3 and the base member 7 can be improved. Friction is reduced, and the movement of the first and second elastic members can be further smoothed.

The spring member 6 is for enhancing the resilience from deformation and displacement of the model due to massaging. The material and shape thereof are not particularly limited, but a material that is easy to move in all directions like a female breast, for example, a coil spring is preferable.

The spring member 6 is fitted into the second elastic member 3 from the center of the rear surface of the second elastic member 3 toward the front, and is engaged with the second elastic member 3 at its front end 6a by adhesion or the like. The rear end 6b is airtightly joined to the central portion 7a of the base member 7. As shown in FIG. 2, it is preferable to arrange the tubular member 5 on the outer side of the spring member 6. In this case, the front end portion 6a of the spring member 6 is attached to the front end portion 5a of the tubular member 5 with an adhesive (for example, silicone). The tubular member 5 is joined to the second elastic member 3 with a silicone adhesive or the like. This protects the spring member 6 and ensures engagement between the spring member 6 and the second elastic member 3.

Further, the rear end portion 6b of the spring member 6 is airtightly joined to the central portion 7a of the base member 7. For this method, for example, a hard adhesive (for example, epoxy resin type or amino resin type) is used. , A hardening adhesive such as an alkyd resin), a method of screwing the hard adhesive layer 6c provided on the rear end portion 6b (see the figure), and a method of directly mechanically bonding.

The base member 7 corresponds to the rib cage of a living body, and includes, for example, wood, metal, synthetic resin (for example, ABS resin, high-density polyethylene, polypropylene, rigid polyvinyl chloride, rigid polyurethane, polysiloxane). Etc.) are used.

The shape and thickness of the base member 7 can be appropriately selected in consideration of operability, easiness of handling, etc. However, when a thinner material is used, the central portion 7a to which the spring member is fixed is selected. It is preferable for the strength to be slightly projected (see FIGS. 1 and 2).

The peripheral portion 7b of the base member 7 is hermetically joined to the peripheral portion 1b of the skin member 1 so as to accommodate the members 2, 3 and 6 and, optionally, the members 4 and 5, by both methods. Adhesion, welding, mechanical joining, etc. are appropriately selected according to the material, shape, thickness, etc.

Further, in the present invention, the skin member 1 may be one in which the gel-like material 8 is filled inside the nipple portion 1a. As a result, the tactile sensation of the teat can be approximated to that of a living body, and massage practice on the teat can be effectively performed. It is preferable that the gel-like material 8 to be used has appropriate elasticity and is stable so that its properties do not change over a long period of time. For example, a gel made of synthetic resin such as silicone gel is used.

The model for practicing breast massage of the present invention can be implemented in any form such as shoulder type, stationary type, and hanging type, but a shoulder type is used for teaching and practicing breast self-management. desirable. Furthermore, the present invention can be implemented as having one breast part or as having two breast parts. If you have two breasts, compare one with a normal (ie breast-filled) breast and the other with an abnormal (immediately insufficient milk supply) breast. It can also be implemented in the manner that it can.

[Effect of the device]

 As described above in detail, the present invention is based on a quadruple structure having the skin member 1, the first elastic member 2, the second elastic member 3, and the spring member 6 as main components, and further, By filling the inside of the nipple portion 1a with the gel-like material 8, the following remarkable effects are obtained as compared with the conventional model for practicing breast massage.

(1) Since the air layer is interposed between the epidermis member and the base member and the first elastic member imitating the fat layer and the second elastic member imitating the mammary gland, the suitability of these members is improved. Coupled with careful material selection, the feel of the massager remarkably resembles that of a living body, and accordingly, a sufficient practice effect can be achieved. (2) Since the air layer is interposed between the epidermis member and the base member and the first elastic member that imitates the fat layer and the second elastic member that imitates the mammary gland, there is sufficient flexibility as a whole. However, it is easy for the fingers to be inserted, and therefore, it is possible to easily perform massage practice down to the deep breast. (3) The action of the spring member that is engaged with the second elastic member promotes the resilience from deformation and displacement associated with the message, so that massage practice can be carried out efficiently and long-term. It is possible to significantly reduce the residual deformation of the entire model due to use. (4) By filling the inside of the teat with a gel, the properties of the teat can be made to be very similar to those of a living body. Therefore, sufficient massage training should be performed on the teat and areola. You can
